Intelliun announced that it has been highlighted in a recent ZapNote report by ZapThink. The report, entitled “Intelliun Model-Driven Development for Service Oriented Business Applications,” underscores that the model-driven approach of Intelliun’s flagship product, The Virtual Enterprise (VE), is particularly well-suited for SOA-based application development.

According to the report, Intelliun is a vendor to champion Model-Driven Development (MDD). MDD is an approach to application creation that uses visual models to introduce substantial efficiencies and rigor to the software development process. When using the Intelliun approach, application developers use visual models to reduce the time needed to create applications, thus reducing costs and improving software quality. Additionally, the report highlights that Intelliun’s MDD approach is well-suited for both representing the service model as well as creating the underlying implementations of the services that make up the model.

“Intelliun’s innovative and model-driven approach follows an important SOA best practice and a new service-oriented approach to application development, where the components can be rapidly and cost-effectively developed into business processes as needed. Organizations who are struggling with creating service implementations in the context of an abstracted service model, should consider Intelliun for their modeling and application creation environment, “said Jason Bloomberg, Managing Partner at ZapThink. “Because of its model-driven approach, VE is particularly well-suited for SOA-based application development. VE narrows the construction activity to the creation of the abstract design, focusing primarily on the application logic, and relieving the development team from focusing on implementation details. Consequently, VE reduces the number of required skill sets and the overall team size.”

 “ZapThink’s recognition of Intelliun as an innovator in the SOA market-space validates Intelliun’s business and marketing strategy. Our powerful VE platform with its model-driven approach emphasizing speed of execution, lower cost development and re-useable components, is the future of SOA application development,” said Sal Abramo, Director of Marketing and New Product Development at Intelliun.
